I LOVE FOOD!!! I have always loved food. I love the smell of food cooking, I love the taste of food...I even love the way it feels going down my throat. Quick...give me a piece of food and I can tell you every ingredient without a problem. The love affair I have had with food has been extensive and wonderful!
The problem is Food can be a jealous little bitch!! She wanted to keep me to herself so she made me fat. Not just regular ole' fat, but big ass fat!!! Yet, my love for her never ceased. She is a part of me and I can't deny her even if I tried.
As I embark on this new chapter in my life with the lapband as my trusty companion, I have to look at food in a new light. I will not deny that I still love her...however, when she is away now I am no longer counting the minutes, and seconds until I can have her again. Now when she is not around I am okay.
Food is still apart of my life...but now I'm in charge of our relationship. I will only put up with so much from food and her over indulgent ways. It feels great to be in charge!
I couldn't have taken this step with out my lapband!! Thanks for saving me from my toxic relationship with food.

I have the same love affair! That is the hardest part. I do miss food sometimes, but it's not like I am being deprived, I just have to mentally accept that it take so much less to satisfy me now. I still love it though!
